Thank you davewest!

For anyone else that finally discovers they or their customers have a problem with their stores lightbox in google chrome:

go here - http://mootools.net/download

and download the file - MooTools Core 1.3 with compatibility

Go to this post

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...postcount=2139

and find near the bottom and download the slimbox.zip file


unzip the the slimbox.zip file and upload the slimbox.php file to \includes\classes\zen_lightbox\, replacing the existing one.

Open the MooTools Core 1.3 file in a text editor. Highlight and copy the code, then paste the code into the two files (removing the code that's in them)

/includes/templates/Your_Template/jscript/
zen_lightbox_mootools_custom.js
zen_lightbox_mootools_default.js

This works for me also, but this switch :

(Close on Image Click =True)


in the admin is broken, I tried dropping it back into the slimbox code (<?php if (ZEN_LIGHTBOX_CLOSE_IMAGE == 'true') ), but it did not help. Not a huge deal. I hope that is the only problem it causes.

Any ideas?

Is there anyway to disable lightbox for certain products? I don't need it for my 'gift certificates' product. Is lightbox built to be available for each and every product_info thumbnail, or can the lightbox/popup image effect be controlled for individual products? thanks..

I have done a little more research an it appears EVERYONE who uses Zen Lightbox suffers from this problem if they use product or part numbers for their items.

I guess they haven't full checked their site to know they have this problem.

A few of posters on this thread sites with this same problem (unwanted text / code next to main image) on reviews page

Any solutions or comments welcome

Thanks for contribute fix, but after I follow buildingblocks's method. I clicked on image, it shows up image in self window, no lightbox effect anymore. If I replay "zen_lightbox_mootools_custom.js", "zen_lightbox_mootools_default.js" with original files, lightbox shows up, but still can't work in chrome. How can I do now?

also, I use chrome to view stevekane's pages, some of them work fine, but some still can't work. Does somebody has same situation?

That is strange since I checked the actual items on the reviews page where there are actual reviews and it did not show up...but it is there on the product without a review...maybe something got left out in the coding of that cart file??

I forgot to ask , how did you come up with that link since the reviews link only goes to actual reviews?

Hi DarkAngel
I arrived at this link from a RSS feed (rss_feed_2-1-4) with a 'comments' link such as this (test site)

http://www.blackrunbikes.co.uk/mount...ucts&cPath=6_1

Since originaly posting I have not been able to arrive at this page from within the cart itself as yet. So maybe this page is not availble from the cart and I need to mod the RSS feeds to pioint the 'commets' link to a different page.

I have only been 'playing' with Zen Cart for a couple of weeks and still trying to find my way round it.

At no cannot work out why I have two buy now button on my product pages

hi everyone,

I just installed zenlightbox and got this error message after doing the installation:

1146 Table 'bjo04327121xxxxx.configuration_group' doesn't exist
in:
[SELECT @cgi := configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Zen Lightbox';]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

has anyone received this type of message, what can I do?

I have this problem as well...unwanted product code to the left of the main image, within the #productMainImage div eg. [wlap-potpourri]"> where wlap-potpourri is the actual product code and the rest is unwanted residual markup. Have been digging but yet to find a fix...I noticed that the upgrade to v1.3 was supposed to fix this. BTW you get to this page by entering a product review.

I'm using IH v2_0-Rev8c, zen_lightbox-v1.5-20081218, and zen-cart-v1.3.9e.

Any suggestions most welcome! Thanks for all the useful posts BTW.

Gents,

Thanks for posting the Chrome info up! I was searching for that since my site is broken in Chrome... One more issue to pan out When my products are priced by attributes I can not get the extra images to load or show up. any ideas? I am running tabbed products, and image handler 2 with the newest version of zencart

Hello all, I'm using Zencart Version 1.3.8 and for a long while I had no issues with Lightbox. For some strange reason Lightbox has stopped working in all browsers. I re-installing this mod but when I try to install the &quot;install.sql&quot; file I receive the following error: 1146 Table 'robbsr_zc1.configuration_group' doesn't exist in: [SELECT @cgi := configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Zen Lightbox';] If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields. Thanks for any help in advance.

When I first installed this mod I added the highlighted remark to the top of the install.sql file:

This little note has helped me to avoid your problem for future installs in other stores. You may want to do the same.
